Fine fine, they added 30 seconds from the first chapter of Part 3 too.

 

[Jocchan]

What reason would they have to tease part 3 with the protagonist unless it was to laugh at the fans when it doesn't happen?

Maybe because they would obviously like to continue it, but whether this actually happens depends on other factors. Just like all the games/movies/TV shows teasing a sequel/new season even if that ends up never existing.

Yeah, that sounds right. Hopefully it will happen.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Hey, what if this happens!

Part 3 is only shown as a clip show of important stuff and we skip to Part 4!

 

[EndcatOmega]

Hey, what if this happens!

Riots, probably!

 

[Drkirby]

I would find it hilarious.

As purely an anime watcher, how do they explain the shift from the Ripple to the stands on the 3rd part?

A wizard did it.

The explanation is "there are more enemies than just pillar men and vampires, so new fighting method!"

I think it was a gypsy?

Joseph is the last ripple user. Jotaro can't use the ripple but doesn't need it, he punches things (a lot).

Ripple is useless against non-vampires, pillarmen, stands are better.

 

[ReiGun]

The franchise wiki gives the impression that Stands are an evolution of the Ripple. Is that the case?

At some point, yes, it's mentioned in the manga, but it's just a bunch of bollocks pulled out of Araki's fabulous ass.

The real reason is "I wanted to double the amount of poses".

Didn't they show several times how ripple is useful against non-vamps?

 

[Glass Rebel]

At the beginning of Part 3 Joseph mentions that it's an extension of one's lifeforce and it's somewhat backed up but becomes irrelevant afterwards. It isn't that important anyway.

LOL I can respect that.

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

so its over? When does the next season air?

We don't know.

Seriously, we need to put that in the title.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Animation |OT| Your next post will be...When does the next season start?

 

[Kurita]

:lol That's a great idea.

 

[SolarKnight]

No

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Animation |OT| <=To be continued=

If only thread titles could have images...

 

[Boss Doggie]

Technically ripple is very dangerous since it mimics the sun's power. With that said only Cars could totally use at high potential. At most you can only control stuff.

 

[SolarKnight]

Well, with creativity it can be a weapon towards regular humans anyways. Not to mention there's kindof the fact that we've seen it used to knock someone unconscious and to stop a heart.

There's also its healing power too.

Stands are more interesting anyway.

much more interesting, shit ain't even started yet.

 

[Daingurse]

I recently finished watching the old OVA's and am up to I think volume 9 of Stardust Crusaders and you are 100% correct. Stands are infinitely more interesting.

Also do the Stands in JoJo predate Persona? Because someone is copying someone haha.

Stardust Crusaders was 1989, so yes. It predates a lot of things.

the first time jotaro summons his stand on screen is by shooting himself with a gun.

I mean if a persona isn't essentially a supernatural psychic power. . . I wouldn't know what else to call it.

Let's not forget Blue Dragon either!

 

[Daingurse]

OH SHIT! That's a damn stand too haha.

 

[Kurita]

Cards in Yu-Gi-Oh could be compared to stands.
Yugi's outfit is inspired by Jotaro's.

 

[Lirlond]

I don't think there's an anime around that doesn't reference jojo at some point

Honestly you're right, it's just impossible to know unless you know anything about JoJo lol.

 

[AlimNassor]

Stand's are awesome. some of the stands in later parts get to be super creative...and overpowered.

 

[ColossalLazy]

AWAKEN MY MASTERS

Track 22 is so good too.

 

[FallingEdge]

Watched this and it was fantastic. Currently watching the OVAs starting with 2001.

Real fun.

 

[Kurita]

Dammit I thought there were news

 

[Wiseblade]

Got my hopes up for nothing...

 

[Arrowgigantic]

All-Star Battle got a 40/40 from Famitsu, that's sort of news.

Haha, explanations.

My wife was showing me a picture of Okuyasu's pose from the game and explaining that he does it for no reason, and I was like "Yeah, sorry, nothing in Jojo actually happens for a reason, I'm pretty sure."

Dio in Johnathan's body awakens his stand through the stone arrow.

Sets off a chain reaction where every Joestar descendent also develops a stand.

For everyone else they were already an existing concept. We just never saw them.

The franchise wiki gives the impression that Stands are an evolution of the Ripple. Is that the case?

It started off that way. With Jotaro's stand weakening when he couldn't breathe vs abdul, but they moved away from that pretty quickly.

Probably after realizing that was one of the most limiting concepts of Ripple.

And I mean it doesn't make a lot of sense for Vampires like Dio being able to use an ability derived from Ripple.

Still no s2 rumors?

Stand users still can't use their Stands if they can't breathe, though. I don't know if vampires don't need to breathe though honestly...

Well, either they don't or Dio is VERY good at holding his breath.

It's doubtful we'll get S2. You may as well go ahead and read the manga. Even if we do we'll never see part 4+.
